About
Primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of romidepsin when administered with CHOP versus CHOP alone in subjects with previously untreated peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) assessed according to Response criteria for malignant lymphoma 1999 by a Response Adjudication Committee (RAC).
Full description
This is a randomized multi-center phase III study, to compare efficacy and safety of Ro-CHOP with standard CHOP regimen in patients with previously untreated, histologically proven PTCL. Given the nature of the experimental agent, this study is an open-label study. Patients are randomized 1:1 to receive either (Arm A) cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (CHOP) administered in 3 week cycles for 6 cycles [22] or (Arm B) romidepsin CHOP (Ro-CHOP) administered in 3 week cycles for 6 cycles. In the Ro-CHOP arm, romidepsin will be administered at a dose of 12 mg/m² IV on day 1 and day 8 every 3 weeks. In this study, patients will advance through three phases of the study: screening phase, treatment phase and follow-up phase. Patients will receive study drug(s) for up to 6 cycles, or until unacceptable toxicity will develop or progression or voluntary withdrawal. Patients will be followed for survival until the earliest of either 80% of patients have died or 3 years from the last patient randomized. Three years after the primary analysis an update of the database will be done and a rerun of the analysis will be performed.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, 1 or 2
Negative pregnancy test for Females of ChildBearing Potential (FCBP)
Female patients of child bearing potential must use an effective method of birth control (i.e. hormonal contraceptive, intrauterine device, diaphragm with spermicide, condom with spermicide or abstinence) during treatment period and 1 month thereafter; Males must use an effective method of birth control during treatment period and 3 months thereafter.
Life expectancy of ≥ 90 days (3 months).
Exclusion criteria
Any significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the patient from participating in the study.
Any condition that confounds the ability to interpret data from the study.
Other types of lymphomas, e.g. B-cell lymphoma
The following types of T cell lymphomas:
Previous treatment for PTCL with immunotherapy or chemotherapy except for short-term corticosteroids (duration of ≤ 8 days) before randomization
Previous radiotherapy for PTCL except if localized to one lymph node area
Patients planned for autologous or allogeneic transplant as consolidation in first line
Central nervous system -meningeal involvement
Contraindication to any drug contained in the chemotherapy regimen,
Subjects with HIV positivity
Subjects with active hepatitis B or C. Chronic carriers of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) without HBV DNA positive blood are eligible. Subjects with non-active hepatitis C (with normal transaminases) are eligible.
Any of the following laboratory abnormalities, except if secondary to the lymphoma:
Serum creatinine > 2.0 x ULN
Prior history of malignancies other than lymphoma (except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast or untreated prostatic cancer without any plan for a treatment) unless the patient has been free of the disease for ≥ 3 years
Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the patient from signing the informed consent form
Any known cardiac abnormalities such as:
Concomitant use of drugs that may cause a significant prolongation of the corrected QT interval (QTc)
Patients who have received more than 200 mg/m2 doxorubicin
Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors
Concomitant use of therapeutic warfarin due to a potential drug interaction. Use of a low dose of warfarin or another anticoagulant to maintain patency of venous access port and cannulas is permitted.
Clinically significant active infection
Use of any standard or experimental anti-cancer drug therapy within 28 days of the initiation (Day 1) of study drug
Pregnant or lactating females or women of childbearing potential not willing to use an adequate method of birth control for the duration of the study.
